Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
FEEDBACK: Freud regarded sex as our primary motivation. He suggested that people are predominantly pleasure-seeking beings, and much of his personality theory revolves around the necessity of inhibiting or suppressing our sexual longings.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: The psychic energy manifested by the life instincts is the libido. The libido can be attached to or invested in objects, a concept Freud called cathexis. Cathexis is an investment of psychic energy in an object or person.
